    I take a multivitamin, vitamin D, BCAA's pre workout, and creatine post workout.

    After a 6 month plateau...I figured I was vitamin deficient in SOMETHING. My hair was also falling out despite increasing my calories to around 2000.

    Vitamin D, and Zinc for about a month...and I have curb stomped the plateau. (Bonus...my hair has stopped falling out as much)


    Supplement if you need to - and diet pills don't work.

    I don't really take "weight loss pills."
    I do, however, take a multi and CLA every day. I take other things for my mood (I am prone to depression) like st. johns wort and evening primrose oil.
    I try to get as many things as my body needs from food. I TRUELY believe food is medicine and I rarely get sick. After I weight train, I do drink a protein shake that isn't full of sugars and artificial crap... I'm not perfect but I'm close to almost a 100% clean diet.

    I take a multivitamin, fish oil supplement, C4 Explode preworkout, and Elite gourmet Whey-Casein blend for my post workout shake.

    I take protein powder as food. You can have that as a main source of protein and be fine.
    whey has calories and is derived from milk when they make cheese

    its been around for a long time. curds and whey = casein and whey.
